Updated : Feb 9, 2009

Charlie, a giant bird, caused havoc yesterday and went on a 7 hour rampage when it escaped from a farm in the UK. Charlie a 6ft tall Rheaa South American bird, that looks like an ostrich, destroyed dozens of garden and hedges and attacked anyone who tried to catch him! Sharon Gould, the owner of the bird, said: "We think he got frightened by a big dog before going on the rampage!"

Charlie was eventually caught when a crowd surrounded the bird and covered him with blankets. The only injury was to a vet when he tried to tackle the bird and Charlie bit his ear! There was no permanent damage done. Charlie is now back safe and sound at his home in Worcester!

VeryHappyPig says if it was a pig that went on the rampage, there would have been a lot more injuries!
